Hi,
I have a question about the following segment of info pages
for gcc:
`-funroll-all-loops'
Perform the optimization of loop unrolling. This is done for all
loops and usually makes programs run more slowly.
`-funroll-all-loops' implies `-fstrength-reduce' as well as
`-frerun-cse-after-loop'.
Does
"usually makes programs run more slowly"
imply
"however, for some rare cases it _will_ make them run faster"?
If it doesn't, then I don't see a point of using this flag at all.
Thanks
Igor
